MAY in BC: Applied to BC Arts Council

Took my first stab at a BC Arts Council grant with my short film, BEN’S CHILI. This is a short film surrounding the struggles of Dawn, a widowed hoarder, who decides to rekindle her love of cooking at a chili cook-off. Always feels good to finish one of these. Good luck to those in contention!
